The RF3401E Point Transmitter is a magnetic and
dry contact wireless transmitter used for
monitoring doors, windows, or other dry contact
devices.
This device is equipped with an internal reed
contact for use with an external magnet assembly
and a cover/wall tamper switch. The point
transmitter accepts a dual EOL resistor
supervised dry contact input from an external
device.
Supervision is provided by transmitting a signal to
the receiver every 13 min. if there is no other
activity. All transmissions from the RF3401E send
battery status information.

Mounting ConsiderationsMounting Considerations
Mounting Considerations
• The maximum range of the point transmitter, in
open air, is approximately 300 m (984 ft). In
normal residential or commercial applications,
it is recommended the point transmitter be
kept within 100 m (328 in.) of the receiver to
which it is assigned.
• Mounting the point transmitter on metal
surfaces can reduce its RF range. Mounting the
point transmitter on ferrous metal (iron or
steel) surfaces can affect the operation of the
internal magnetic contact.
• Mount the point transmitter on the door/
window frame and the magnet assembly on the
moving portion. Mount the magnet assembly
within 15 mm (0.59 in.) of the point
transmitter and in an acceptable orientation as
shown in Figure 1.

Mounting the Transmitter
1. Position the mounting plate over the desired
location. If connecting an external device,
position the mounting plate so the wiring
passes through the wire entrance (Figure 2).
2. Attach the mounting plate using two flathead
screws (Figure 2).
When mounting the base, note the location
of the magnet.
3. If using the wall tamper feature, use a panhead
screw in the wall tamper breakaway (Figure 2).
4. From the point transmitter bottom (Figure 3),
remove the wall tamper breakout with a small
tool.

5. Tear off the loose portion of the ID label when
programming the control panel (refer to
Section 5.0 Panel Programming).
6. Depending on which case your transmitter
comes with (Figure 4), open the transmitter
cover by inserting a small flat-blade
screwdriver into the slot at the end of the
transmitter. Then push in with the screwdriver
until the latch opens.
7. Slide the point transmitter over the mounting
place to lock it into place (Figure 5). If
connecting an external device, pull its wiring
through the wire entrance of the point
transmitter as the point transmitter slides
onto the mounting plate.
8. Make the wiring connections for any external
device. Refer to Section 4.0 Setting Up opens.

9. If the installation requires additional security,
use an additional panhead screw to mount the
point transmitter (Figure 6).
10. Install a recommended battery (see Section
2.0 Specifications on page 2). Observe proper
polarity (Figure 7).
11. Close the cover.

If using the RF3222E Receiver, the
RF3401Ecan onlymonitor the magnetic
contact or the external contact.
If using the magnet, do not use an external
device.
If using an external device, remove the reed
switch (Figure 9).
The contact input is supervised using dual 1.5 kΩ
and 2.2 kΩ End-of-Line (EOL) resistors. This
allows the control panel to identify wire tamper
conditions (opens or shorts). The maximum cable
length for external wiring is 6 m (19 ft).
